While it isn't publicly confirmed, I'd like to state I am confident that Nemesis Market was in fact seized. I agreed the post yesterday from the Admin Francis was strange, especially his follow up details or lack of.

It was unclear how he could know specifically that it was Lithuanian Law Enforcement, but this can usually be explained by hosting companies providing some sort of tip off through an email regarding a LE request for information. If there isn't a gag order equivelant in place, this is actually quite common.

He was also very confident of not being identified and that he was in an "untouchable" location, before removing his posts and sending me a message to state his situation has changed and he is now "on the run".

As always, vendors and buyers take whatever precautions you think you may need from the fallout of a market seizure.

Prior to his post he had sent me this signed message I can share for clarity, which checks out as his PGP, I didn't save his post yesterday and there is no way to recover it once he removed it.
